FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
December 10, 2002
TEXAS REGIONAL BANCSHARES, INC. INCREASES
CASH DIVIDEND TO $0.12 QUARTERLY
McALLEN, TEXAS—Texas Regional Bancshares, Inc. ("Texas Regional") (NASDAQ: TRBS) today announced that on December 10, 2002 its Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share payable on January 15, 2003 to common shareholders of record on January 2, 2003. This dividend represents an increase of $.01 per share, or 9.1%, over the previous quarter.
Texas Regional recently reported net income for third quarter 2002 of $14.3 million, or $0.54 per diluted common share, compared with $10.1 million, or $0.41 per diluted common share, for third quarter 2001. Return on assets and return on equity for third quarter 2002 averaged 1.58 and 16.26 percent, respectively, compared to 1.60 and 15.76 percent, respectively, for third quarter 2001. Beginning in 2002, new accounting standards eliminated the amortization of goodwill. The impact of goodwill amortization, net of tax, on third quarter 2001 decreased net income by $550,000 or $0.03 per diluted common share.

As of September 30, 2002, Corpus Christi Bancshares had total assets of $36.1 million, loans of $19.0 million, deposits of $31.6 million and shareholders' equity of $2.7 million. The definitive agreement calls for the exchange of 37,146 shares of Texas Regional common stock, subject to adjustment under specified conditions, for all of the outstanding shares of Corpus Christi Bancshares not presently owned by Texas Regional. The transaction is subject to approval by the appropriate regulatory authorities and other customary closing conditions and it is expected to close during the first quarter of 2003. Texas Regional presently owns approximately 67,174 shares or 32% of the shares of Corpus Christi Bancshares.
